thats why he was asking for a Crack. personally I'd just go out and buy the game again. it might be slightly hard to find, I don't know if Best Buy still has copies... but it can't cost more than 20-30 dollars.

Amazon lists used D2 for $12, but then you'd need to purchase LOD, too, which looks like another $15 .... *sigh*

Personally, I use daemon tools, and a virtual cd image on my hard drive. I still have the original cd's around here somewhere ... I keep software keys in my secure database on my iPaq computer, so as not to loose them. <heh>

As for the no-cd stuff, I'm very wairy of such things harboring spybots and worse ..

Ahh, the memories...
I played with a group on-line for a couple of years (actually, we still do. we've just moved on to Guild Wars). Our biggest adventure was going through the game in Hard Core mode - server side characters who are gone permanetly on their 1st death... We met every Friday night.
My son was quite young at this time, and I'd let him play a bit (with other characters). He could spend a lot of time chasing chickens around in the first camp. He wouldn't leave the camp, as the monsters outside were too scary. (I mentioned he was quite young, right?)
So one Friday night I have my 80th level Hard Core Necromancer up and ready to go a little early. The gang was meeting in the desert city. I went outside to take a look at the evening sky, and take in the fresh air. My son sees the game up, and runs through the city, chasing chickens... except he's never seen this city, and runs right out the gate into a huge ambush (if you've played through here, you know where I mean). I hear a (real) scream from inside the house, and before I can make it back to the computer, my Necro is Dead. Not a pretty sight....

When I try to go back the other way, the files arent recognized.

Also, my laptop seems to do other weird things, such as not allowing me to use my Horadric cube on runes, and gives me lesser values for gems and such.

Any ideas?

Make sure your desk machine and your laptop have the same version of the game. If the desktop has a later version, that would explain what is happening.

Edit: Qwerty...If you and LLR get a game going, let me know. Since LLR is going to provide the guncher, I will go with a sorceress. If you do a nercomancer, I will go with fire...if you do a druid, I will go with cold.

I think I will uninstall and reinstall the game. I also think part of the problem may be that my laptop is not online and cannot download the patch.

I dont know how much time I will have to play in the near future, because I am substitute teaching, and getting ready to start clearing (turning in a bunch of stuff and getting lots of paperwork done) Right now I am building a psycho Tesladin.....

I'll most likely want to do a druid, but I could be talked into a nercomancer.

druids have cold though... they have their fire, and then blast of ice, wind sheild, two conceituive wirlwind moves, then hurricane. I don't really use the whirlwind moves, but blast of ice is nice early on and wind sheild is good when I use it, and I'm always using hurricane if I can.

although then the alternative is lightning, which is crap in my opinion.

I have aura covered, so if LLR can play and goes pally, he wont' really have to bother with that. our characters would end up just battling for auras... unless we want to go with pallys great aura diversity and I won't spend time on the aura summons.
